@JourneymanGeek ok, but it is one more strange rules that apply only to meta. And moreover this question doesn't intend to ask for agreement or disagreement on the consequences of the fact, but the reality of the fact. I understand that most of people prefer to be wrong than to feel in danger

@JourneymanGeek What I want to achive ? simply have control on my contributions. basically I had no choice but contribute on this site if I wanted to answer question about computer and I disagree that it massively advertise, and I was aware that it massively advertise long after I contribute

and it is not me who had chose the rules, it is stack overflow, the less that one can ask it respect its own rules

I would say that 50 persons should be largely enough to run stackoverflow that it scales especially that now the scale up is done (50 is conservative, I would say that 20 is largely enough). If you looks on the jobs title, few are operationals, and among the operational, a lot is used for jobs and other side revenues

you can't say something wrong about microsoft offensive attitude toward linux if you just don't want a member of the staff saying things like " boy, unsubstantiated conspiracy theories. I can see why some people are looking for popcorn. " proof framapic.org/T4bwzvu9rvQz/G1eG6CT471oE.png

@XavierCombelle if you hate Microsoft so much, any anyone who don't hate them like you, why you stick around? Really? You can find lots of Anti Microsoft communities out there, where you'll be welcome and can freely discuss those things.

@Shog9 hello shog. you said 4 downvotes is all it takes to push a question off the front page. Doesn't work, apparently. I posted a nonquestion to test it (sorry for abusing the system). it's got -7 score, yet it is on the newest and active feeds.

I've often thought that a "weak" close would be useful - a way for folks with some knowledge in a given area to quickly take a new question off the table so that it could be discussed, edited, etc.
One way to prevent abuse would be to make the question re-open instantly if it was edited. Anothe...

Two more minor requests:
Allow unregistered accounts to delete their own posts: this one should be fairly obvious. This occurs a lot when some unregistered user finds out that they can't delete their own post, and decides to just vandalize it. This is a restriction for no good reason ("Cookie-ba...

As said in the question, "The quality project isn't one that we plan to ever finish, it's perennial and kicks in every 18 months". That was 11 months ago, so we are about 7 months away from SEQP 3. Exciting!

@Michelle yeah, I see a blue upvote in there, so I've voted that up long time ago. Why isn't it implemented yet! I'm a regular on the network since 4 years, and today I tried the shoes of a new unregistered user. It was extremely frustrating for me being unable to delete the question myself. Wonder how it would be for actual newbies!

It was a in company experiment, a bunch of us were trying to get completely new accounts to go over 1k, we kept records of our experience and our UX researcher went over that and came out with recommendations.

And the idea was more to see what it felt like, what the new user experience is (frankly, a bunch of people who seem to only hang in around MSE/MSO could try that and consider how we can make the experience better).

@LangLangC Not really. However, only the second has meaningful views. That suggests it was seen by outside users and the others mostly weren't. I had to lower the anonymous feedback threshold to just one vote in order to get 5 questions. — Jon Ericson ♦2 hours ago
